Question

Hi, Just 1 week ago I started a new regime . My first regime was Minoxidil + generic finastride and nizoral shampoo but I switched to Rogain+Dutestride+Nizoral shapoo Does this regime regrow my previous hair.

Joyce Davis, MD · Answer

Dutasteride is a better androgen blocker and grower of hair if you have androgenic alopecia.  You should be under the care of a dermatologist, however, since there could be side effects.  If you are a man, there could be sexual dysfunction.  If you are a woman, this drug stays in the body longer; and you must be careful to avoid getting pregnant.You should look into PRP treatments.

Jeff Donovan, MD, PhD · Answer

If you are male and if your diagnosis is androgenetic alopecia, the switch you have made certainly increases the chances you will stop your hair loss and increases the chances you will increase your density. It is not a guarantee however. Be sure to review with your physician the side effects of dutasteride compared with finasteride.

Drugs like Dutasteride can reverse hair loss when the hair loss is recent. Rogaine can grow new hair in areas where there is no hair but it is often just fine baby hair
